It was Aguero’s 30th goal in his 34th appearance in all competitions in 2016, the most of any player in English football, as he continues to play a decisive role for Pep Guardiola’s men.

However, the lead didn’t last long as Fernando Llorente struck for the hosts just four minutes later to bring them level and as it remained at 1-1 going into half-time, it sets up a very intriguing second half as Guardiola and his players look to make it six wins in six games to start the campaign.
